An eight string Hamer Thunderbird with Concrete Blonde and an absolutely gut wrenching version of "Joey"
He should keep that as well. Totally different amp. A TT800 and a Carbine would be the “Trifecta of Tone” and would be great with his cab.
The M-6 wouldn't go anywhere. But needs a major clean up on the inside.
That is a great version. Great song.

The only downside is that I can't listen to it without bursting into tears.
A little FF
This one is signed by Robert Cray.
I met him after a local gig and asked him to sign it for me.he was very gracious and spent a bit of time with the wife and I at the tour bus..he said he usually signs guitars but Basses rarely come up.At that point I told Robert that I wished he would get back with his old band..he was a little confused and asked who would that be?..I said Otis Day and the Knights.
Robert just busted up bent over laughing..he called over some of the crew and asked me to repeat what l just said..they were rolling too..Good times...Cheers!

Cool story, cool bass too, eighties MIJ Squiers are the coolest.
Thank you..These early MIJ Squier Precisions are at the top of the list quality and sound wise.
Maybe the best version I've ever heard of that song. Tons of emotion in her voice and the band was real tight, of course the Thunderbird was the cherry on top.
Hey! I never... Well, not intentionally... Not maliciously...Well, I wanted to be polite and not name names. But I'm pretty sure he's created disturbances before--then smiled and relished in his achievement.
OK kind of accurate.

No matter how bad you thought that was, botulism is much, much, much worse. Arm swollen so much it wouldn't fit in a sleeve. Fever near 100F. And PAIN.
You need a good vintage camera shop. Get yourself a Fuji 67 folder. Wish I had bought one when they came out 15 years ago.
Way. Botulism in one arm, anthrax in the other. As soon as the swelling started going down for the botulism shot, the anthrax shot swelled up.
